Spaces in telephone numbers?? Why?

Outlook appears to have some strange behaviour. When importing
contacts from my Pocket PC or when creating new ones there are spaces
inserted into the phone numbers.

I'm living in Germany (international number prefix 0049 or +49) and all
my German numbers being in this format +4912345678 get converted to
this:
+49 12345678
Any number from any other country (say america 001 or spain 0034) just
stays like it is:
+112345678
+3412345678

This strange behavious must have something to do with me living in
Germany and having the country specific settings. No other program does
this, only Outlook.

I hope you guys can help me change this, because some programs I use to
call people get confused with this space - worst of all is my cell
phone where I have to delete the space in every number...

Sincerely
moontear
